Advanced Pilot Assistance Systems (APAS 5.0)
The Advanced Pilot Assistance Systems 5.0 (APAS 5.0) feature is available in Normal
mode and Tripod mode. When APAS is enabled, the aircraft will continue to respond to
user commands and plan its path according to both control stick inputs and the flight
environment. APAS makes it easier to avoid obstacles, obtain smoother footage, and give a
better flying experience.
Keep moving the control sticks in any direction. The aircraft will avoid the obstacles by flying
above, below, or to the left or right of the obstacle. The aircraft can also respond to the
control stick inputs while avoiding obstacles.
When APAS is enabled, the aircraft can be stopped by pressing the flight pause button on
the remote controller. The aircraft brakes and hovers for three seconds and awaits further
pilot commands.
To enable APAS, enter the camera view in DJI Pilot 2, tap
> , then Obstacle Avoidance,
and enable APAS by selecting Avoid.
Landing Protection
Landing Protection will activate if Obstacle Avoidance is set to Avoid or Brake and the user
pulls the throttle stick down to land the aircraft. Landing Protection is enabled once the
aircraft begins to land.
1. During Landing Protection, the aircraft will automatically detect and carefully land on
suitable ground.
2. If the ground is determined unsuitable for landing, the aircraft will hover when the
aircraft descends to 0.8 m above ground. Pull down on the throttle stick for more than
five seconds, and the aircraft will land without obstacle avoidance.
• Make sure to use APAS when the Vision Systems are available. Make sure there are no
people, animals, objects with small surface areas (e.g., tree branches), or transparent
objects (e.g., glass or water) along the desired flight path.
• Make sure to use APAS when the vision systems are available or the GNSS signal is
strong. APAS may not function properly when the aircraft is flying over water or snow-
covered areas.
• Be extra cautious when flying in extremely dark (<300 lux) or bright (>10,000 lux)
environments.
• Pay attention to DJI Pilot 2 and make sure APAS is working normally.
• APAS may not function properly when the aircraft is flying near flight limits or in a GEO
zone.
